Cardinal Koovakad presides over Mass at Westminster Cathedral

Catholic IntelligenceUpdated 1 min read

Cardinal George Jacob Koovakad presided over a Mass at Westminster Cathedral in London on 18 October.

During his homily, the cardinal, who serves as the prefect of the Dicastery for Interreligious Dialogue, stated that religious differences should never justify hatred, discrimination, or violence because every person carries the image of God. He noted that God has no borders and encouraged people to remain firm in their Christian identity to meet others without fear or confusion.

Koovakad emphasized that dialogue between people of different faiths helps overcome ignorance and prejudice, allowing them to work together toward the peaceful resolution of conflicts.
